Topic-Focused Multi-Document Summarization Using an Approximate Oracle Score
We consider the problem of producing a multi-document summary given a collection of documents. Since most successful methods of multi-document summarization are still largely extr...

Solving the Problem of Cascading Errors: Approximate Bayesian Inference for Linguistic Annotation Pipelines
The end-to-end performance of natural language processing systems for compound tasks, such as question answering and textual entailment, is often hampered by use of a greedy 1-bes...

Context-specific approximation in probabilistic inference
There is evidence that the numbers in probabilistic inference don't really matter. This paper considers the idea that we can make a probabilistic model simpler by making fewe...
